The IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS) annually sponsors the International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), the world’s premier symposium on this topic. It is held annually with alternate locations in Europe, North America and international venues. The first IGARSS in Washington DC in 1981 with attendees from 16 countries was highly successful both technically and financially. This prestigious meeting has become an international focus of remote sensing programs and activities each year, drawing many hundreds of scientists, engineers, decision makers, and students from around the world to become familiar with current research and technology in this field. On behalf of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society and the IGARSS Organising Committee we invite you to participate and support IGARSS 2015, the premier symposium on remote sensing.
